Warped shed door

Is there any way to pull a door that has warped back into alignment?
The construction is simple planks of hemlock nailed onto a frame with a
couple of diagonal braces.

If the diagonals intersect at the center of the door, then one or both
are warped and replacement should solve the problem.
Otherwise secure a block in the center of one side of the door. The
height of the block depends on how big the door is. Run a cable
across the top of the block and down to the furthest opposing corners
of the door. Tighten the wire to bring the door back in shape.
